More than one procedure

black_sun99 · June 28, 2008

I have been talking to my hubby about being banded and he keeps asking me it I can commit to the new diet. I say definitely. I have quite a few questions. Ok. I'm 26 230lbs and 5'2". Anyone around the same size as me get banded?? How long were you in the hospital? How long is recoop time? How long are you on liquids? Have you ever had more than one procedure done at one time. I'm wanting my tubes tied and I was wondering if anyone had that done and banding at the same time?

Just curious to why you would want your tubes tied so young. Do you already have children? But as far as your question I don't believe any doctor would opt for that. That would involve two different types of surgeons and the hospital would want to have money for two times. I may be wrong but I don't think so because its all about how much money they can get from us.

Hello

I am 5'2 and a half, and weighed 224 pounds. The doc did a hiatal hernia repair at the same time. I had the procedure done at a clinic rather than a hospital. I arrived at noon, they did the surgery at 1:15 and I left the clinic at 4:00. That was a wednesday. I felt rough the rest of that day, and on Thursday. By friday I was feeling well enough to go to the spa for a mani and pedi. By Saturday I was driving. By Tuesday I was 100% back to normal.

I would wait to get my tube tied, i did get it done when i was 27, and now to get it undone they want $6000 cash. If i had to go back i would still get a shot in the butt (birth control).
